SmackDown This! (Dec. 24, 2008) from WWE.com
Wed, 12/24/2008 - 12:25am — webmaster
Greetings, Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all from a BBQ loving, Oklahoma Sooner football fan who is happy to be home as holiday air travel is about as enjoyable as discussing the BCS with JBL.
My suggestion to those of you that have a choice of flying or not this holiday season would be, “Are you nuts?!” Tuesday morning I was at the Toronto airport at 4:30 (that’s 3:30 Oklahoma time) and the place was an insane asylum.
It was a worse scene than our pal the Fink OD’ing on chocolate covered pretzels.
How hot was Trish Stratus Monday night when she teamed with Raw’s #1 man John Cena? Trish got the proverbial “Road Warrior” pop when she was introduced to her home town fans. Just curious, but why have some of my most unforgettable moments happened in Oklahoma City, my adopted hometown? Just a coincidence, I’m sure.
Speaking of Monday Night Raw, is any one more topical than Randy Orton these days? RKO has a ton of new ink on his arms, a new faction-in-the-making, and arguably the best finishing maneuver in the WWE. Orton is ultra controversial and his strange popularity cannot be denied.
Friday night Smackdown is wrestling heavy this Friday night on MyNetworkTV which yours truly always considers a good thing.
One thing you will notice this Friday night is that HHH is just a touch “edgy” which might not be the best descriptor but the “Cerebral Assassin” has a nasty, mean streak that he seemingly is having trouble controlling. Perhaps getting cheated out of the WWE Title by Vladimir Kozlov has contributed to “The Game’s” level of consternation.
What do you think that Chavo Guerrero is getting his Aunt Vickie for Christmas this year, a membership to the Coffee of the Month Club? If their relationship continues down its rocky road Chavito might be cut out of the Smackdown General Manager’s will.
If WWE fans start calling Chavo “Gopher” it will not be flattering or well received by the 3rd generation wrestler.
Hurricane Helms is in his first big match since returning from over one year off recovering from neck surgery this Friday night. The North Carolina, MMA aficionado challenges South Carolina native Shelton Benjamin for the United States Title. The U.S. Title has actually only changed hands once in Canada and it was in Toronto on December 18, 1978 when Ricky Steamboat defeated Ric Flair.
Is there a better finishing name than Hurricane’s “Nightmare on Helms' Street?”

Isaiah Barry-your #1 Fan I am most likely your youngest member on this site(14) but that does not mean i am not your biggest fan. You do great commentating on WWE as well as great blogging on this website. btw i DO share your enthusiasm for Randy Orton. Until next time
JR:
I AM NOT PRIVY TO WHAT THE WRESTLER'S ARE LIKE, BUT FOR MY MONEY RANDY ORTON IS PLAYING HIS ROLE USING ONLY WHAT HE WANTS TO USE. I WAS GREATLY DISAPPOINTED IN WHAT HE GETS AWAY WITH. IF HE DOESN'T PULL IN HIS HORNS AND GET BACK TO WHERE THE BIG DOGS PLAY, THERE MAY NOT BE ANY MORE BIG DOGS LEFT THAT ARE'NT OUT OR ON THE SHELF INJURED.

Hi JR hope yo have a great Christmas and a happy new year. Sorry I don't have your enthusaism for Randy Orton, but as far as I am concerned he is just another of these youngsters who think deserting the military is a joke, I happen to be proud of the years I was in the military, and proud of our fighting men and women today. I am sure if the troops knew he was a deserter they would not want to associate with him either, hid dad and grand dad were both real men, I can't say that about the younger Orton, as far as I am concerned the role he is playing now fits him perfectly, needing someone to always help him win a match, not able to get the job done on his own. I don't hope him any bad luck, but he is not the type of role model I want my grandchildren to look up to.Perhaps his attitude will kill off his career. I wonder why those wrestlers like Kirt Angle, and Booker T are no longer in WWE,? Guess their end time came early. Am looking forward to Friday nite smackdown as Monday nite Raw is still lacking on the excitement scale. Have been watching ECW and it is a lot more exciting than RAW, hope they change the storylines on RAW soon, if not there will be a lot fewer viewers. TNA is a lot more exciting than RAW even though I believe it will not be around after 2009.
Words can't describe how hot Trish is. I guess Trish-hot is the closest way to describe her. I was popping for her at home in Illinois.
Great blog JR. I am looking forward to Smackdown this week.
